“SOUTHSIDE” Q&A

Who has Sam Hunt been writing with for the new album?
I’ve been writing with some of the same guys that I wrote a lot of the first record with, who had been with me from the beginning, and a few new guys and girls. I’ve written a lot of different songs over the past two or three years since putting out my first record, but they were all over the place, to be honest. I made a point last September to say, “OK, I’m going to write for the next 12 months. I’m going to focus and organize my efforts and whatever I come up with will be the next record.” So the songs on the record will be songs that were written within about a 12-month period."

Why had Sam Hunt been releasing just singles and not a full album?
“I try to make music that’s relevant to my life and relatable to the culture I live in. Putting out music as it’s made, versus holding it until an album’s finished, allows me to be more timely and maintain balance.”
